The air in Sterling Hall’s primary lecture room is thick, tasting of old paper and oppressive expectation. You sit in a pool of silence, your exam finished in a staggering nineteen minutes—a feat that borders on the impossible even for this school's elite. The quiet is shattered by the weight of a hand clamping onto your shoulder. Julian, the council president, looms over you, his hazel eyes narrowing with a mixture of doubt and disdain. Sloane steps forward, her voice a cool, warning blade. Viktor watches from the side, a predatory smirk playing on his lips, while Mila appraises you with a look of sweet, poisonous arrogance. They don't see a peer; they see a pretender.
